Reference point moved to center (left), and object scaled (right)
❖ Do one of the following:
• To specify a different reference point for the selected object, click any of the nine points on the reference point
locator in the Transform or Control panel.
As you click different reference points on the Transform or Control panel (top left and right), the reference point for the selected object changes
(bottom left and right).
• Tomovetheselectedobject’sreferencepointtoaspecificlocation,selecttheRotatetool ,theScaletool ,or
theSheartool ,positionthetooloverthereferencepointicon,andthendragittoanewlocation.Or,withone
of these tools selected, click anywhere on the object or page. The reference point moves to that location.
Note: When a transform tool is selected, clicking away from the object does not deselect it— it moves the reference point.
Choose Edit > Deselect All to deselect an object.
The last-selected reference point on the reference point locator becomes the new default reference point for all tools
and objects. If you drag an object’s reference point icon to a custom location (not on an anchor point), the panel
reference point returns to the default position once the current object is no longer selected. InDesign preserves the
default reference point position for new documents so you don’t have to reset it.
Change the information displayed for nested objects
The Transform panel orients an object to a spread’s pasteboard, where a horizontal line has a rotation angle of 0˚. By
default, this is true even if the object is nested inside a transformed container object (that is, if the object is part of a
transformed group or pasted inside a transformed frame). For example, if you paste an unrotated graphic inside a
frame, rotate the frame 10˚ with the graphic inside, and then select the graphic using the Direct Selection tool, the
Transform panel displays the graphic’s rotation angle as 10˚.
Dear manymanuals.pl Admin! my name’s Eric and for just a second, imagine this… - Someone does a search and winds up at manymanuals.pl. - They hang out for a minute to check it out. I’m interested… but… maybe… - And then they hit the back button and check out the other search results instead. - Bottom line – you got an eyeball, but nothing else to show for it. - There they go. This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disap
Dear, Eric here with a quick thought about your website manymanuals.pl Owner! I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites. Like yours, many of them have great content. But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits. I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else. Here’s a solution for y
